How do all members of the Phylum Ciliophora move?

The only way to tell which spiders in your area are seriously venomous is to learn to identify them individually. If you are in the USA all you really need to worry about are the widow spiders and the recluse spiders. There are a few widow spider species, and the ones that have bites that used to kill adults (before antivenoms were invented) are all glossy black with some red (sometimes an hourglass pattern) on the underside of their abdomens. There is only one species of recluse spider that you need to worry about, that is the "brown recluse," and it is a very undecorative brown color. People are always confusing one or another kind of spider with that kind, and the only way to learn to identify them is to get some good photographs and descriptions. Unlike the widow spiders, the range of the brown recluse spiders is fairly limited, so you also need to find out from your state government wheher your locality even has them.
If you live in Australia you already know about the Sydney funnel-web spider, and you probably know that it is a dull dark brown color. If you live in South America you probably know about the wandering spider found down there that can kill you if you manage to put your foot in your shoe after the spider has gone in and it bites you to keep from getting squished. It is mostly brown too, and certainly not yellow and black.
The spider that comes to mind when you say "yellow and black" is a beautiful spider that weaves orb webs and is never a problem for human beings.
What kind of spider has a black body with white dots and is found inside the house?
The "daring jumping spider"! Although they can jump quite well, they are harmless. They are found quite commonly in houses and prey on smaller insects.
Mature female hobo spiders are 9.5-16.5 mm (3/8-5/8˝) long, and male hobo spiders are 7-13.5 mm (9/32-9/16˝) in body length. Males have enlarged pedipalps located near the mouth, resembling short legs (Fig. 3.). The hobo spider greatly resembles certain other members of the funnel-web spider family which are harmless or cause minor bite reactions. For this reason, identifications of suspected hobo spiders should be confirmed by an entomologist or other persons trained in spiders.
